Time for the speeches. First up is Karolina Pliskova, who is overcome by the emotion of losing and wipes away the tears.

"I never cry!" she laughs. Heartfelt 'aaaahs' all round. Even Sue is tempted to give her a consoling hug.

Our own bit of BBC royalty is there too. Sue Barker is compering, as usual, introducing our new Wimbledon champion to the piece of silverware which she will take home.

Barty's smile gleams as much as the Venus Rosewater dish she hoists aloft.

The grounds staff roll out the astroturf quicker than your local landscape gardener. We can't have royalty stepping on grass, can we? The Duke of Kent and Duchess of Cambridge are handing out the honours.

Wherever Evonne Goolagong is watching the match, there will be a broad smile reflecting back off the television screen. And probably a few shouts of 'That's bonza, mate!"

To win on the 50th anniversary of her idol, Evonne Goolagong Cawley, who she admires so much...

This is so special to share this moment with her team.

She put it out there just a few months ago that she wanted to win Wimbledon.

Pliskova has a lot to be proud of this fortnight.

Former Wimbledon champion on BBC Radio 5 Live

What a special moment.

This is the moment that makes it all worthwhile, it really is.

Ash Barty realises a childhood dream on Centre Court. She's a Wimbledon Champion.

There's a hug for Pliskova, but she's won a second slam title.

She is sat on her haunches and the tears start to flow.

What a spectacular triumph after it looked like it would be such a one-sided final.

What do you do in this moment? Go with instinct! Barty's instinct is to dash towards her box and climb up over the commentary gantry a la Pat Cash.

Aaargh! Which way is it though? Not that way. She abandons one route and scales the opposite side.

She's climbed tennis' Everest! Winning Wimbledon and then getting up to her support team.

Bone-crunching embraces all round.

Barty drops to haunches on the baseline when Pliskova can't find the court with a backhand.

The pair embrace at the net when Barty gets to her feet, before the Aussie is overcome by emotion.

A childhood dream achieved!

What a fetch from Barty! That surprises Pliskova and she goes long. A-40.

And then an ace from the Aussie. Championship point...

Oh! Barty sticks a drive volley into the net. Break point Pliskova! We knew it wouldn't be straightforward... 30-40.

Wait! Barty is rocked by a return and goes into the net. 30-30...

Pliskova goes for broke with a crosscourt forehand and this time finds the tramlines. Barty leads 30-15...

Barty had the chance to serve out the match in the second set. Now she has another opportunity in the third. Will she take it this time?

Alfie Hewett and Gordon Reid are closing in on a fourth Wimbledon title in the final of the wheelchair doubles.

The British top seeds have broken Dutchman Tom Egberink and Belgian Joachim Gerard for a second time in the second set to lead 4-1.

You can watch this match at the top of the page.

Eeek! A double fault from Pliskova gets those Czech nerves jangling again. 30-30.

But a confident volley at the net brings up game point and she whacks a 94mph serve down the T.

Still just the one break in this third set though. And here's how it happened...

And what a point to kick us off! Lobs and volleys all over the place, Pliskova putting away a backhand volley to clinch it. More shrieks of excitement from the Centre Court crowd than you'd hear at a One Direction concert.
